Duanmu Xuan, who rushed back to the capital, was detained in the mansion by the Duchess of Liangguo, first, to ask him to explain why he sent all the concubines in the mansion away, and secondly, he was ready to hold this son and force him to cave the house. At first, the Duchess couldn't figure out why the concubines in her son's courtyard disappeared overnight, thinking that these people couldn't bear the loneliness and ran away by themselves, but then after thinking about it carefully, she understood. There are secret guards of the Iron Blood Guard in the son's courtyard, how could it be possible for a few powerless women to escape, there is only one explanation, this person was ordered by the son and was brought out by the people of the Iron Guard.

The Duchess of Guo, who understood it, of course went to make trouble with Liang Guogong, but this pillow person pretended to be stupid with her, and even didn't enter the inner courtyard for a month, and rested in the study every day, so that she had nowhere to use her strength, and there was nowhere to steam her anger. At this time, I finally looked forward to my son's return home, how could I spare him.

"Xuan'er, my mother only has one son for you in this life, and the Guogong Mansion is all pointing to you, but you are good, you have been fighting the enemy outside all the year round, and life and death are uncertain, if you can't continue the incense for the Guogong Mansion as soon as possible. Mother! Mother! What kind of face to meet the ancestors of the Duanmu family! The Duchess choked up, took a handkerchief of incense, and wiped the corners of her eyes.

"Mother, my son must get you the best woman in the world as a wife, but those vulgar people, you better let your son go, I really don't like it!" Duanmu Xuan has long been surprised by his mother's bitter love drama that is staged at every turn.

"You unfilial son, I have already persuaded you to do this, why don't you weigh the heart of being a mother!" When the Duchess saw that her son looked like a hanger, she was angry in her chest, and slapped her hand on the table, her eyes stopped squinting, and her eyes were as big as a copper bell.

It's a pity that Mu Xuan doesn't eat hard and soft at this end, so he took a sip of the teacup at one end, "Mother, the twisted melon is not sweet." Why do you bother? ”

"I don't care, Qin Shuang is my eldest girl, it's just right for you to be a room, I don't care if you want it. No, you have to lead her into your yard anyway, and you look at your yard, up to the steward, down to the cleaner. It's all manservants, where can I take good care of you? "The Duchess of the Kingdom is determined, even if it is stuffed today, she will stuff a woman into her son's yard. And this Qin Shuang, she has personally trained it, as long as a person can enter the yard, he will not believe in his son, this man is the same, and his son will not be an exception.

"Mother! I don't want it! If you want to see this girl again, put it in your yard. If she leaves me there, maybe she will disappear from the world tomorrow! "The Duchess still doesn't know her son well enough, and Duanmu Xuan already has someone in her heart at this time, how can she let such a woman enter her yard. He remembered Situ Yan's words, "I wish to have one heart, and the white head will not be separated!" ”

"I think you dare?" The Duchess of the Kingdom is also anxious, this son does not eat oil and salt, and now she is strong, and her son even threatens her.

"Mother, I have only one word. I, Duanmu Xuan, only marry the woman I love the most in this life, and as for them, you can leave them to your brothers! Duanmu Xuan did not admit defeat. Since his mother is a strong-hearted fortress person, then his attitude must be clear.

"You, you! Okay, you're going to be angry with me when you come back, aren't you? Brothers, your brothers were not born to their mothers, they were all concubines who couldn't be put on the stage. Do you still point to them not succeeding to the government? ”

"Mother, the concubine is also the father's son, you, hi!" At the mention of those brothers, the tears of the Duchess could not be stopped any longer, she raised sons for other women, and even everyone now has grandchildren, but she, just such a precious son, now has hard wings, and does not listen to her at all. Duanmu Xuan was most afraid that his mother would cry sadly, and the previous pretending to cry was completely different from this time, so he had to take a soft and kind words to persuade him first. Although the mother and son did not reconcile, they were safe that night. However, the Duchess still took the opportunity to send clothes and food to her son, and found an opportunity to let Qinshuang run to her son's yard.

It's just a pity that Mo Feng is always stopped outside the hospital, but the young master has issued a death order, no matter who it is, as long as a woman is allowed to enter the hospital, her martial arts will be abolished, and the iron-blooded guard will be wasted, and she will never be used again. Not to mention Mo Feng, even a few secret guards also cheered up at this moment, and their eyes were fixed on the women who were circling outside the courtyard.

So the next day, Duanmu Xuan didn't find a chance to see Situ Yan. Mo Feng sent everything that night, but Situ Mansion had no principal, Situ Jin and Situ Yan all went to Henan County, and they haven't come back yet.

"Manager Li, this thing was given by the young master of my family, please collect it on your behalf!" Mo Feng pointed to the festival salute on the carriage, and his head was big.

"This can't be done, the eldest young master and the eldest lady are not here, I am just a slave, I really can't be the master? Don't you be embarrassed minions? "Where Li Youzhu is willing to accept it, the masters are not there, in case it should not be accepted, then the master will blame, even if he is kind to the master, then he can't be without rules, which he always remembers.

"Since this thing has been pulled, you can't let me pull it back, your eldest young master and the young master of my family are brothers with different surnames, and even Miss Situ and the young master of my family are also called brothers, Mr. Li just accept it with confidence, I promise that it will be fine?" Mo Feng felt that this errand was going to be messed up, and he knew that it was better to let the envious Mo Yu come.

"Ink guard, it's really not that the slaves don't accept it, it can't be accepted, the rules in the house are very big, and the young masters and young ladies are not there, how can this gift be decided by me as a minion? You'd better take it back first, and I promise to bring your words! ”

The two of you pushed me and refused, and they were deadlocked in the outer courtyard of Situ Mansion for a while, Mo Feng would never take the gift back, he didn't want to be laughed at by Mo Yu, and he would be punished by the young master to go to the horse shed.

"You just have to accept this gift, Miss Situ, I will send someone to the ward, can't you be wrong?" Mo Feng felt that the family rules of Situ Mansion were bigger than those of Guogong Mansion, and he was a little anxious.

"Ink guard, don't embarrass the slave, this gift can't be accepted, if you don't dislike the trouble, it's better to send it to Situ Mansion in Henan County early tomorrow!" The eldest lady has been staying there lately! Li Youzhu heard the eldest young master mention Duanmu Xuan and Mo Feng, and knew that several people had a close relationship, so he told Mo Feng the whereabouts of the two.

Of course, Mo Feng knew that as soon as they entered the mansion, the young master looked for Mo Bing and learned about Miss Situ, how could he not know that the two of them were not in the capital now, otherwise, with the young master's temperament, I am afraid that people are already standing outside Miss Situ's boudoir at this time.

But he can't let this Manager Li know. Even if it is an attitude, it can't be revealed, otherwise, with Miss Situ's temperament, if she knows that someone is watching, she won't scatter the young master into eight petals.

"Mr. Lee. As for this thing, I can't pull it back if I say anything, otherwise I won't be able to save my head. I sent someone to Henan County to ask for Miss Situ's letter, but this thing was temporarily placed in Situ's mansion. If you don't come, you can return the things to the Guogong Mansion or throw them away, it's up to you! Mo Feng didn't wait for Li Youzhu's reaction, he turned over and got on his horse as soon as the words fell, and walked away directly with people.

Li Youzhu smiled helplessly, this thing can't always be placed at the door of the mansion, so he had no choice but to call Wu Guo and find someone to pull him into the mansion, but he didn't dare to enter the warehouse. Unloaded the car, put the things in the study in the outer courtyard, and waited for the letters from the eldest young master and the eldest lady.

Mo Feng really sent someone to Henan County, although he didn't know Miss Situ very well, but he could still feel a little bit of her character, if Li Youzhu really accepted the gift in private, I was afraid that this Miss Situ would really throw all the things on the street, so he didn't do it for perfunctory, but really sent someone to relay it.

Situ Yan got the letter early the next morning and knew that Duanmu Xuan had returned to the capital from the northwest. and gave her a gift to the house.

"This guard, please help me convey this gift to the prince, I have accepted this festival, thank him for his kindness. But please ask the Mofeng guards to come over tomorrow afternoon, I have something to look for him! As for the reply, I won't leave you alone, I will send the family to deal with it! ”

"Yes, thank you, Miss Szeto!" This guard had been staying in the General's Mansion with Mo Feng before, although he didn't know much about the young master's affairs. But I can see some clues, and he is one of the people who gave gifts yesterday, the rules of this Situ Mansion, he has also seen it with his own eyes, he thought that this trip to Henan County, it is not good that he will return empty-handed, but I didn't expect things to go so smoothly. He saluted happily and hurried back to the capital to spread the word.

"Bolt, you go back to the capital, accept the gift, I have a gift list here, you give it to Manager Li, and ask him to prepare the things before noon tomorrow according to the gift list, and hand it to Mo Feng. Is it a gift, naturally it is a good gift exchange! Situ Yan glanced at Situ Jin, who was sitting beside him and had been talking and stopped, and smiled. She understood what her brother was worried about. Anyway, according to the same gift list, they Situ Mansion is not unprepared.

"That's the best!" Situ Jin was also worried that the little sister had recklessly accepted the gift for a while, this person had a short hand, he didn't want to owe this person too much favor, if Duanmu Xuan proposed to him in the future, he didn't even have the courage to refuse.

"Alright, Bolt, here you go!"

"Yes, Miss! Does the eldest young master still have orders? ”

"Yan'er, you said yesterday that you were going back to Lijia Village for the New Year, but is it true?"

"Yes, don't you think it's a good taste to celebrate the New Year in the village? There are so many people and things to do in the capital, I don't want to stay in the capital! ”

"Okay, I'll go back to Beijing with the bolt, and I'll go to visit Mr. Gongsun before the year!" Situ Jin felt that he should go back. After all, a teacher for one day and a father for life.

"Okay, my brother will go back to the dim sum shop, wrap some dim sum for Mr. Gongsun to bring, and then prepare a copy for Mr. Gongsun according to the things on the gift list. By the way, I remember the last time Mr. Gongsun mentioned that he had a very proud granddaughter, and the elder brother went to the head noodle shop to choose a set of delicate head noodles to give to Miss Gongsun! ”

"Yan'er, I'm a man, how can I teach and receive it privately with Miss Gongsun, this is not in line with etiquette?"

"Ah, I forgot, so send it in my name!"

"That's fine!" Situ Yan took a silver ticket of 1,000 taels for Situ Jin, before the Chinese New Year, when her brother returned to Beijing, she had to get together with her friends to give some gifts, she couldn't let her brother be looked down upon. and secretly gave the bolt a thousand taels and asked him to hand it over to Li Youzhu, so that the money he earned in his hand a few years ago was not enough to spend, not only was he a little discouraged.

"This business is really not as fast as robbing the rich and helping the poor!" Situ Yan regarded the previous two robberies of corrupt officials as robbing the rich and helping the poor, and she was the only one in this world, who robbed others and could still speak righteously.

In the afternoon, Situ Jin returned to the capital mansion with the bolt, and Li Youzhu welcomed the person directly into the study and handed over the gift list left by Mo Feng.

"I already know the matter, so let's do what the eldest lady instructs! Wu Guo, put the medicinal materials and cloths and some things that are easy to store, check them and then put them in the warehouse, and send them to my cousin when I choose a few new ones, and the rest are still in the study, I plan to give them away! Situ Jin glanced at the gifts piled on the ground and almost caught up with a small mountain high, and sighed.

"Yes!" Wu Guo was happy in his heart, in the year when the eldest young master and eldest lady were away, how could anyone come to give gifts, this Situ Mansion looked like a superficial light. Now that the masters have just returned, the giver has come, and it is a big gift, of course he is happy for the master, but at this time he can't say a word of flattery, because the eldest young master is not only unhappy, but also has a sad look.

The bolt exited the study and stuffed the 1,000 taels given by the eldest lady to his father, "Dad, the eldest lady said, if the eldest young master prepares gifts for others, pick up the good ones, don't worry about the money!" ”

"The eldest lady has a heart! Otherwise, the surplus money in this house is really not enough to prepare such gifts? Li Youzhu was still worried about the election ceremony, and he had confidence in holding the silver money at this time.

"Dad, don't worry, the eldest lady's shop business in Henan County is booming, not to mention this thousand taels, I think it won't take a few months, and a few thousand two young ladies will be able to earn back?" For the eldest lady's business acumen, the bolt has seen it most clearly these days, and she has long admired the five-body cast.

"You, follow the eldest lady to study hard, my father is currently in charge of all the shops in Situ Mansion, and I will have to point to you in the future!"

"Dad, don't worry! The eldest lady told me a long time ago, I am a good person now, and the eldest lady asked me to go to the imperial examination too, and there is no hurry to do business! ”

"The eldest lady really wants you to go to the imperial examination? This, but you're just a minion of the eldest young master? Li Youzhu was happy in his heart, but he still couldn't believe it.

"Of course it's true, the eldest lady said, a slave is just a profession, aren't the guards and generals also slaves who work for the emperor? If they can, why can't! You don't know, when I heard the eldest lady say this, I was stupid, but I understand what the eldest lady means, since I was a child, I followed the eldest young master, and I didn't read less, although it was not as good as the eldest young master's writing, but it shouldn't be difficult to take a show exam! I want to give the Li family a glorious lintel! ”

"Good, good, my bolt has grown up! Good! Li Youzhu choked up and didn't dare to cry loudly, but the joy in his heart couldn't be stopped with tears.

"But Dad, I may not be able to be an official in my life, I still want to follow the eldest young master, in the future, when the eldest young master enters the court, even if I am not a slave, I also want to stay in Situ Mansion as a guest?"

"It should be so, if you forget the kindness of the eldest young master and the eldest lady after taking the fame test, even your father will not spare you!"

The father and son of the Li family happily went to prepare things, and everyone was busy for the festival. (To be continued.) )
